Etymology

The name Crossiella derives from: New Latin named for Thomas Cross, a microbiologist at the University of Bradford, who made many contributions to actinomycete biology and systematics.[2]

Species

The genus contains two species (including basonyms and synonyms), namely[2]

  • C. cryophila ( (Labeda and Lechevalier 1989) Labeda 2001, (type species of the genus); Greek kruos, icy cold, frost; New Latin philus from Greek philos (φίλος) meaning friend, loving; New Latin cryophila, cold-loving, referring to the low permissive temperature range for growth.)[3]
